Package: libpt-1.10.0
Version: 1.10.7~dfsg1-4
Severity: important

Hello Debian VoIP Team,

There is a circular dependency between libpt-1.10.0 and libpt-plugins-alsa|libpt-plugins-avc|libpt-plugins-dc|libpt-plugins-oss|libpt-plugins-v4l|libpt-plugins-v4l2:

libpt-1.10.0 	:Depends: libpt-plugins-alsa | libpt-plugins-oss, libpt-plugins-v4l | libpt-plugins-v4l2 | libpt-plugins-avc | libpt-plugins-dc
libpt-plugins-alsa 	:Depends: libpt-1.10.0 (= 1.10.7~dfsg1-4)
libpt-plugins-avc 	:Depends: libpt-1.10.0 (= 1.10.7~dfsg1-4)
libpt-plugins-dc 	:Depends: libpt-1.10.0 (= 1.10.7~dfsg1-4)
libpt-plugins-oss 	:Depends: libpt-1.10.0 (= 1.10.7~dfsg1-4)
libpt-plugins-v4l 	:Depends: libpt-1.10.0 (= 1.10.7~dfsg1-4)
libpt-plugins-v4l2 	:Depends: libpt-1.10.0 (= 1.10.7~dfsg1-4)


Circular dependencies involving shared libraries are known to cause problems
during upgrade between stable releases, so we should try to get rid of them.
